Amazon After nearly a century of use, it's beginning to look like the standard headphone jack is going away for people who listen to music casually.

The biggest and most recent example is Apple removing the headphone jack from the upcoming iPhone. So, if you buy the new iPhone, you've got three options: use the Lightning headphones they provide in the box, use your current headphones with an included dongle, or go wireless. My quest for wireless headphones started seven years ago, but I've only recently gotten to try out a bunch of Bluetooth headphones I actually like.

The headphones here are all good, but they're all especially good at a particular task. Be that adding a thick layer of bass to all of your music, or helping you block out all the noise on your commute. This guide is based on my experience with these headphones, and will be updated over time as I test more. My full review of each headphone is also included if you want to learn even more.

There's never been a better time to buy a pair of Bluetooth headphones. They've gotten a lot better over the last few years, and once you cut the cord, it might be hard to go back.

Best bang for your buck: 1More MK802

Amazon

1More's over-ear Bluetooth headphones are all about giving you great bang-for-your buck sound. Unlike most headphones, you adjust the height of the headphone's ear cups, not the band. It's a design choice I like because it makes these headphones feel more sturdy overall. These headphones have a little bit of a treble-bias, but it's not enough to get really annoying. They don't have noise cancelling, but because they're over-ear-headphones, they create more of a sound seal than on-ear models. If value is your number one priority, these headphones should suit you very well.You can read my full review of them here.1More MK802 Over-Ear Bluetooth Headphones, $149.99, available at Amazon

Best overall: B&O Play H8

Amazon

Without question, the best Bluetooth headphones I've tried in terms of sheer sound quality have been B&O Play's H8's. Their clarity is as close to a wired headphone as I've heard, and they have a 3.5mm headphone port on them, if they run out of battery or you want to hear uncompressed audio. They don't have active noise cancelling, and sit on your ear rather than over your ear, so they're not the best headphones for commuting. But, if you work from home, or want a pair of Bluetooth headphones for listening to music for pleasure, these are hard to beat.

Best for commuters: Sony H.ear

Amazon

If you want a pair of Bluetooth headphones to help you block out your commute, this is your pair. While not quite as precise as the H8's, Sony's high-end Bluetooth headphones do deliver great sound. But, like I said earlier, it's the active noise cancelling that makes these headphones stand out. It's good enough that I couldn't hear anything but my music during my commute to and from work. This included a couple of times when performers, boombox in hand, came onto the train. The only reason I knew they were on the train was when I caught everyone around me staring in their direction. These headphones also have the best on-headphone controls I've ever used. The triggers to play and pause music are easy to navigate and work really well. If you want to get lost in your music on-the-go, these headphones will get you there. You can read my full review of them here.Sony H.ear on Wireless NC Headphones, $348, available at Amazon

Best for bass lovers: Sony MDRX650

Amazon

Lower on Sony's headphone scale is this pair of bass-heavy Bluetooth headphones. As an audio geek, I strive for equipment that brings me clarity, and while these have a total bass tilt, I had a lot of fun listening to them. These headphones are aimed specifically at people who listen to and love bass-heavy music. Pop and rap sound especially good here, although I did check out how rock and jazz would sound — pretty good in both cases. Unlike any other headphones I've tested, this pair sticks with their point of view: If you want bass, you'll be happy. These headphones also have Sony's excellent on-headphone controls, but don't have the noise-cancelling feature. They do a good job of blocking out commuter noise, but not nearly as well as their older sibling.You can read my full review of them here.Sony MDRXB650 Extra Bass Bluetooth Headphones, $98, available at Amazon

Best earbuds: 1More iBFree

Amazon

1More's iBFree earbuds really taught me how to wear headphones like this. There's a learning curve if you've never worn Bluetooth earbuds before: how much to push in, how to put them into your ear to create a seal, etc. Once they're in, though, they sound pretty good. They have the same treble-y sound as 1More's over-ear headphones, but it doesn't get excessive until you crank the volume. That said, I had to crank it a bit to block out the noise during my commute. Still, there's nothing as convenient as wearing a pair of earbuds with a short cord. On multiple occasions, I'd wear these headphones when meeting a friend for dinner, and pop them into my jeans or shirt pocket. If you're tired of having to think about where to put your headphones while hanging out with people, or don't carry a bag regularly, 1More's iBFree earbuds live up to their name.You can read my full review of them here.1More iBFree Bluetooth In-Ear Headphones, $59.99, available at Amazon

Best for kids: Puro Sound

Amazon

These are the headphones I'm testing now. I don't have a full review out yet, but they deserve to be on this list. For their price, these headphones deliver exceptional sound. Bass, treble, and midrange are all represented nicely; so much so that when I first wore them I was shocked. Now, there is a caveat. If you look at the product's name, you'll notice it says "premium kids headphone," which means two things The first is that these headphones don't look super fancy; they're made out of materials that can take a beating from kids. The second is they only go up to 85db in volume; they're quiet to protect kids' hearing, which, as a kid of the iPod-generation, I can get behind. This makes them a weak contender for commuting headphones, and if you're used to listening to your music loudly, their quietness may be disappointing. But, it's hard to deny that they sound really, really good.Puro Sound Labs, The Premium Kids Headphone, $99.99, available at Amazon
